One was obviously a young married woman in her thirties. She had a graceful bearing and a beautiful face that was well maintained. At first glance, one could tell that she was the wife of a wealthy family.
Beside her was a beautiful young girl who looked to be around sixteen or seventeen years old. She had long hair, a slim figure, and long legs. Her appearance was somewhat similar to that of the young married woman, but she was obviously prettier and more outstanding. However, she was not as amiable as that of the young married woman. Her cold expression revealed a hint of pride.
Aunt Shen …
A smile appeared on Pei Feng's face as he quickly walked over.
Both of them were old friends. The young married woman in her thirties was naturally Aunt Shen, and the young girl beside her was Aunt Shen's daughter — Xu Lu.
Memory was a very strange thing. Even after 2000 years, some memories were still unforgettable, as if they were yesterday. For example, everything about Aru, and Aunt Shen … Some were already very blurry and fragmented. He could only vaguely remember some fragments, such as Aunt Shen's daughter, Xu Lu.
During the summer vacation of his second year of high school, he was seventeen years old, at the age of ignorance.
Strictly speaking, Xu Lu could be considered as his first love, the first girl that he truly liked.
Shanghai was the fashion capital of China. The girls in Shanghai were also famous for being beautiful, fashionable, confident, and charming.
At that time, it was the first time that he left his parents and came to Shanghai alone. It was the first time that he came into contact with such a confident, beautiful, western-styled, and fair-skinned, rich, and beautiful girl like Xu Lu. In an instant, his heart began to beat faster.
Pei Feng secretly sighed in his heart.
"Now that I think about it, it's really funny. Young people's feelings always come so suddenly, so unexpectedly. Haha … How could the Xu Lu at that time like me, who came from an ordinary family and was weak and lowly? "
Recalling how he had been mercilessly rejected by Xu Lu in front of the whole class and humiliated and mocked by Luo Yixing in front of everyone, he could not help but shake his head lightly. It was also because of that rash and impulsive confession that he suffered a serious blow and became extremely self-abased all of a sudden. After that, he was unable to walk out of the shadow that was like a maggot stuck in his bones until his death.
Luo Yixing, the son of the mayor of Jing Hua District, his and Xu Lu's high school classmate, the president of the school's student council, an influential figure in the school, and a loyal pursuer of Xu Lu. In his previous life, he had humiliated and beaten him up in public many times in his third year of high school.
"Is that Feng?"
A clear and gentle voice interrupted his recollection. From afar, Aunt Shen waved at him with a bright smile on her face.
Pei Feng walked over quickly. "I'm sorry, Aunt Shen. I've kept you waiting."
"Aiya, you're all grown up now. Time really flies. The last time I saw you, you were still in your mother's arms."
Aunt Shen looked at him with a smile, her eyes filled with endless joy.
"Come, let me introduce you. This is my daughter, Xu Lu."
"She's the same age as you and is younger than you by 20 days. You'll be classmates the day after tomorrow when school starts. You'll have to help each other. Feng, Lulu's grades are pretty good and she has a lot of friends in school. You're new here, so if there's anything you don't understand, just ask her. Got it? "
Pei Feng nodded and smiled. "I will, Aunt Shen. Lulu will be my sister from now on. I'll take care of her in school. "
Take care?
Who's taking care of who?
Four pairs of eyes looked at each other. Pei Feng's expression was indifferent while Xu Lu's eyes were slightly cold. There was a hint of scrutiny and criticism in her eyes.
Was this the Pei Feng that his mother couldn't forget and was full of praise for?
He's only 175cm tall and a second-class disabled person.
He's very skinny and doesn't have any muscles.
His looks can be considered delicate, but that's all. He looks a little cowardly and his temperament isn't good either. He's a far cry from the handsome and confident Luo Yixing who's 185cm.
Wearing …
Xu Lu suddenly frowned.
He's obviously dressed in Taobao. Oh no, Zhuang Feiyu will definitely mock me later. How embarrassing …
I thought this Pei Feng is outstanding, but I didn't expect … he's so much worse than Luo Yixing and the rest!
Xu Lu's eyes flashed with a hint of contempt.
This fleeting look didn't escape Pei Feng's eyes.
Sure enough, just like in his previous life, people in the circle of rich second generations like them are used to judging people based on looks and clothing.
Pei Feng quietly looked at Xu Lu and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
At that time, this girl made him fall in love with her and he became extremely obsessed with her. Because of this, he became self-abased and fell into a long period of emotional trauma. Now looking back … he himself felt it was a little funny.
He is no longer the him from 2000 years ago. Looking back at this young and unbearable unrequited love … apart from smiling bitterly and sighing, he really has no other thoughts.
This Xu Lu had mercilessly hurt her before, but she was also Aunt Shen's daughter. Logically speaking, she should protect her in this life – protecting her was also her way of repaying Aunt Shen.
"Hello, Xu Lu, my name is Pei Feng. We will be classmates when school starts. In the future, if you need any help in school, don't hesitate to ask me."
Xu Lu originally wanted to sneer, but she felt that it's not good to do so in front of her mother, so she covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "What can you help me with … but, okay, you have to remember what you said. Alright, come on in. My mom has been talking about you for a few days. Today, in order to wait for you, she even dragged me to wait with her, causing my best friend to have to wait for me. By the way, mom, the task is done. After dinner, I'll go shopping with Xiaoyu and the others. "
"Go, you have no patience at all. So rude … Little Feng, don't be offended. LuLu has been spoiled by me since childhood, so she is a little arrogant."
"It's okay, Aunt Shen."
"Come, let's go into the house."
Pei Feng smiled and followed Aunt Shen and Xu Lu into the villa.
Aunt Shen's house was decorated in a pure Chinese classical style. The living room was full of mahogany furniture, exquisite celadon vases, landscape screens, potted plants everywhere, and a huge vertical ink painting hung on the wall. On the painting, there was a mountain surrounded by clouds and mist, and a goshawk stood on top of the mountain, spreading its wings and flying away. Its eyes were sharp and awe-inspiring.
There was a man sitting on the leather sofa in the living room, looking down at the newspaper.
Meticulous hair, a pair of glasses, handsome and elegant, and there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Pei Feng's eyes narrowed slightly — Xu Lu's father, Xu Guangyi!
To be honest, Xu Lu had the right to be arrogant, not only because of her appearance and figure, but also because of her family background.
Her mother, Aunt Shen, was a businessman with a net worth of tens of millions. They were very well-off. Her father was the director of the Shanghai Development and Reform Commission. Although this position looked ordinary, it was a position with real power. To some extent, even the mayor of Jing Hua District had to nod to Xu Guangyi when he met him. After all, one was a district and the other was a city.
However, Pei Feng did not have a good impression of Xu Guangyi.
The relationship between the two of them was actually not that good. In his previous life, Xu Guangyi kept a mistress and transferred money around. He was very brazen and deceived everyone, causing Aunt Shen to be very sad. In this life … he would never let Xu Guangyi bully Aunt Shen like that again!
"Uncle Xu, hello."
Xu Guangyi turned his head and looked at Pei Feng in surprise. "You are …"
He had been in a meeting for the whole morning and had just returned home to rest for a while. He did not know that Pei Feng was coming today — usually, he was very busy with work. Aunt Shen usually did not tell him about the matters of the family, so that he would not be bothered.
"Dad, he is the Pei Feng that mom has been nagging about for the past few days. He is Aunt Su's son."
"Oh … Su Menglian's son, Pei Feng, right? Come, come, sit. Are you coming to Nanming High School for Grade 12? I heard your Aunt Shen mention you before. "
Xu Guangyi had a smile on his face, but there was a trace of disdain in his eyes. This trace of disdain disappeared in a flash, but it was caught by Pei Feng.
In his previous life, Xu Guangyi looked down on him because his mother was an ordinary teacher and his father was the boss of a small training organization. This kind of family … was not in Xu Guangyi's eyes at all.
The two of them chatted casually. Xu Guangyi's questions were nothing more than questions about family background and status.
Pei Feng was very frank, but the more Xu Guangyi asked, the fainter the smile on his face became. Although Xu Lu did not say anything, she was more and more disappointed in him.
